@@bigjedimullet He probably would return home with a flute and several stories of dead people, which would impress and intimidate his parents equally XD
I honestly think it should have dawned on them that the fire elemental exploding near Marian and the others was going to be bad. Kiri is evidence of this cause Sam freaked out to hear how many hit points she had. I also love how Jester and Marian came to comfort Caleb. He instantly went to the mindset of blaming himself. I understand how that feels cause I do that too.
@@Asgardian30 In all fairness, they (both the players and the characters) may not have known it would explode like that. Or at least with that range of damage.
I don't think Laura and Sam will ever want to sacrifice a chance at being in the spotlight for an NPC no matter how much they 'love' them. They just can't pass up the chance to do a ridiculous scene regardless of the dangers, risks, and/or issues it poses to the group.
@@xhighone if you're talking about the detective convo, I'm pretty sure they thought they were safe in the moment and wanted to break up a bit of the remaining tension with a quick character moment. I'm also pretty sure they wouldn't have done it if they thought it would put their in-game family and friends in danger
@@heybuddy3616 They were literally walking around to scout the area. They knew they were potentially unsafe but they also knew they were playing to an audience in front of a camera... and the camera won. They stopped worrying about their surroundings for the sake of getting laughs. Which turned into danger for the party and their 'loved ones'. IMO they weren't playing their characters even if they were using the voices. Fireplane, unknown cavern, scouting the area, but screaming about detective stuff for a minute straight? That's not in-character... that's playing to an audience and a camera for laughs. Some people would argue they were in character and that's what Jester and Knot would do but if your kid is there... then you don't go around scouting a Fireplane cavern by yelling at each other and cracking jokes and trying to get an audience to laugh.
@@xhighone Judging from your silence: "Local commenter realizes these people also just wanna have FUN in this GAME and not be in role-play mode 24/7 to appease their horde of viewers."
I'll never forget chat. Half was saying "They have two clerics everything will be okay!" and the other half was attacking Matt yelling: "It doesn't matter he still killed a child!" man... that day was emotional.
2:38 Oh my gods, you know someone's a great actor when you're nodding off to sleep listening to Critical Role (it was like four in the morning, where I am) and they make an scary alien voice and you're immediately wide awake
This episode made me feel just sick, I thought Caleb and Jester could die too and with how little spells they had....this was absolutely horrible. Im glad they're out of the fire plane, but I think it was a bad idea for them to planeshift back to Zadash....ya know....where the Empire is....and the Cerberus Assembly.........
On the one hand yes, I really think they should have gone to Emon. On the other hand if they're on the run I think the last place the baddies would expect them to hide in would be in the heart of the Empire, they'd expect them to run as fast and as far away as possible. So I think the Gentleman was a good move, he's used to keeping things and people secret and he's also a Smuggler so he can help them get out undercover.
Yeah, it seems risky, but they also all have the necklaces attuned. They can only be spotted by non-magical means, and the Empire do not want to touch the Gentleman, that's a helluva a hornet's nest they'd kick.
This PTSD with the Fire Elemental is brought to you by Caleb's Bad Choices. Remember, Caleb's Bad Decisions: all for burning the youngest of your families.
I'll place blame on all m9 there, for not stopping Immediately, and waiting forthe dome to be made. Once that was done Then you can explore...with the others safe. Sadly sprinkles makes the party less apt to be safe around squishy people....But lesson learned
@@TheDuckdodgers24 if you want to put blame on anyone it's 100% jesters fault for talking to the charmed guard about her mother that was why Trent and them went to her house
@@mitchellmiller6644 since Trent was already having the M9 followed he would have known about both the ruby of the sea and Veth's family. He probably also knows about Bo's family and much more... anything he can find out may be of use to him, he definitely wants Calib back in the fold....more so now with his skill with dunamancy. It would be relatively easy to find out a great deal about the mighty nine because he probably has spies everywhere plus he's an archmage so his axis to information is amazing. I fully expect him to attempt to do whatever it takes including blackmail to get Caleb back.
Jester and Veth talking about their Private - for - hire, I've always thought it would be cool if the Nein had a fortified airship that's sort of like Howl's
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: I want a one-shot where Caleb plans the wedding of the Gentleman to the Ruby of the Sea. (Why yes I am focusing on the very end of the episode to cope with the fact that I cried over the events of the Revivify segment why do you ask)
I’ve seen this whole episode and other recaps but I LOVE the way you focus on the individual players to capture the moment and the tension and the subtle reactions. And the music you add! Just really enhances the highlights!
Very happy that Matt and the gang handled this episode so maturely, it’s comforting to know that they can explore even the saddest brand of tragedy with the sort of reverence and respect needed to do so. Kind of a wake-up call for myself remembering how badly things can go in this game, though not an entirely unwelcome one. I just hope the flack they’ll inevitably get from critters and outsiders won’t affect this campaign we love for the worse.
Everyone in chat lost their minds matt makes a real world and kids aren't spared from it kids died in c1 as well at least he let luc be brought back. Like people where blaming Matt and not the pcs who made a series of questionable decisions that lead them to where they are and they had consequences for their actions
The saddest thing is that you can tell from the cast's faces that they figured it out before Matt did the numbers. They know how much damage fireballs do, and this was even worse. Him running the numbers only confirmed it for them.
@@pyromanci2736 Very true, they did have a little bit of hope, but I think they all kind of knew before the actual numbers came out, as evidenced by Sam saying "Matt's out here killing kids."
I expect Marion, without saying a word, to walk straight up to The Gentleman and slap him right across the face as hard as she can. Right at the start of the next episode. This is going to be so much fun to see Matt have to act out both sides of that interaction.
I am afraid that those amulets aren't totally fool proof, I feel Trent would have introduced a flaw so that _he_ can still track people wearing them. Also yikes! Luke burned to death and remembers what it felt like. Little guy is having second thoughts about following in mom's footsteps. I don't blame him, that was like the most pain you can feel for a split second and he is only five.
I am honestly worried that after Veth saw her son die..well she didn't see it happening, that she decides to leave the group. The whole discussion with her husband at the end. You cant blame her but I would have a hard time seeing the nein as complete if that were to happen. I am going to play it safe and just heavy hydrate it now until Friday. This episode was amazing,intense but amazing. Thanks for the post Nico and see you all at the pregame.
@Kat Fisher I saw a lot of speculation on that on Twitter during break.... And I was worried about her leaving then and there until the conversation between her and Yeza in the dome.
@Nice Hydrating buddy!!! Sometimes I am happy I am not in twitter lol. These past few episodes omg the grey hair I am getting from them! I hope Veth stays but yeah I could see her then and there leaving. In the words of Ashley but in a totally different context "Man, I am sooo nervous!" (Did I get that quote right?)
It's nice having CR content to look forward to...and the music during the battle! Gave me the chills (in a good way). Oh Luc...I love the cast but some of the NPCs just get into our heads and heart. T_T
It's a shame that I missed the beautiful description of 8:35 as I had to go for a stress jog... at 5am... Thanks Matt for looking out for my cardiovascular well being if not my sleep schedule.
Thank you Nico for this highlight. ❤️ This episode was so stressful and have so many things. Happy Fun Ball team, death & revivify (I still cry watching this moment), Marion with Jester & Caleb, Yezza & Veth. My favorite moment is Luc with Uncle Ducey. And excited on what about to happen between The Gentleman and Marion ❤️
I am curious about whether Sprinkle supposed to count as one person or not. As well as how NPC attune to an equipment, did they simply wear it for at least short rest time for it be counted as attuned?
It's been speculated that Luc had somewhere between 5-9HP. He died due to taking the halved (19) fire damage from passing the Dex save, and half of that would still be 9 damage. He would have still been unconscious and rolling death saves even then. Since it took them a few rounds to completely destroy the elementals, he would still have had a chance to end up failing the death saves, meaning that the fire resistance rod wouldn't necessarily have saved him even if he had been holding it and even if Matt bent the rules so it didn't require attunement.
Now I'm all for the parent trap antics I think we as a community is all about the parent trap antics but I care to much about these NPCs' lives to not stress over the decision to keep them in the empire and not leave them in your summer home in a land in which the assembly could not travel without causing another war
isnt there a rule that states if a character gets damaged that exceeds their total hp, they cant be brought back ? Because i feel Luc should have stayed dead to teach the group the consequences of their actions
Matt has homebrew rules when it comes to bringing characters back to life. Idk if its the same for PCs as NPCs, but usually when PCs die, the revivify DC is 10, and they use Persuasion as the check. If the PC has died before, or even multiple times, the DC to come back to life is higher, and Matt typically allows 3 people to make persuasion checks, and if the checks are successful, the DC lowers. But all this may be different when it comes to NPCs.
did they change or accelerate the end of the campaign because of this episode? in ep130, they start saying their formal goodbyes to each other. you can see here how much this stresses the cast members with children...
Nico, can I ask you a favour, please? Could you please wait until the official Critical Role UA-cam VOD is up, before uploading your compilations? I'm sure I'm not the only one of your subscribers who doesn't have any other way of seeing CR but to wait the UA-cam VOD, and this Is the third time I get accidentaly spoiled, so please, could you wait a little longer?
@@goodlove2726 I'm not watching, but sometimes, if I'm scrolling down in the feed, and I come across the video, It Will start auto-playing, and in this case, for example, just a glimpse of the battlefield is enough to see and recognize where they ended up at the end of last episode
And, UA-cam's CC is not perfect, but it seems to catch a good amount of what is said. The recommendation made by Nice is a lot more useful though. Hope this helps!
I never knew how much I needed Luc and Uncle Caduceus until I got it.
It’s a non-stop delight how cute the Nein all are with him, but something about Caduceus’ sense of humor gels so beautifully with Luc’s personality. You just know he’s gonna loan Luc the bone flute to prank mom and dad with someday.
So freaking cute!!!
@@bigjedimullet I think Calliope has that flute now... Which makes me wish that Luc visits The Blooming Grove to meet the Clay family
@@Micaerys That would make an adorable one-shot. What Luc Did On His Summer Vacation to the Blooming Grove!

Probably Laura and Travis as well. Don't think Ronin and Luc are that dissimilar in age, and fictional or not... yeah.
Sorry, he hugged his kids that night - and Liam too? Or Liam went home and also hugged his kids? Because honestly, it could go either way here

"You hear Marion scream" - Just those words broke my emotional fortitude while watching this.
Out of the frying pan, into the literal fire, and back into the frying pan

All I can think about is the possibilty of an animated series, seeing Lucs little moment with Cad and then later hearing Marion scream
As much as this episode killed me, nothing compared to the emotional whiplash from watching this fight and then seeing the Pusheen ad
I am so happy with how the gang handled such serious stuff so well.
Truly they are always so good about this sort of stuff.

Got to get this animated ASAP
in times of extreme despair, i always remind myself that we’re basically gods... ❤️
Another brilliant edit Nico!
Sam’s got a smart pistol for a mouth. He don’t miss.
Caduceus the mvp in this episode
All I see at the end of this is Jester as that Knonk meme like "Oh yeah, it's all coming together."

Thank you Nico!!!!
Why hasn’t this episode dropped ywt
Normally it's about 7-8pm GMT.
Your editing is wonderful.
I would love to see people in the next campaign playing grown up Luc and Kiri.
I ❤ the music at the end
Jester totally parent trapped Marian and the Gentleman,. And it only took killing child.
They fucked around and found out lol hopefully Jester and Veth learned something from this =/
I’m sad they weren’t in Avernus. But this was still a fantastic episode
Idk if Cad gives off more of an uncle energy or big brother energy...but I'm here for both.
Luke was holding the rod that granted fire resistance....
I know he didn't have time to attune to it, but it Might have helped...
Yeza was holding it.
It's been speculated that Luc had somewhere between 5-9HP. He died due to taking the halved (19) fire damage from passing the Dex save, and half of that would still be 9 damage.

we all need an uncle duecey in our d&d games
Surprised Veth hasn't just given up at this point and decide to leave the party
How did Kiri live so long with them?
0:20 and we wonder why Luc died
the fact the crew should have been reversed with
veth jester and the families going into the ball
and yasha Beau and fjord staying out
They seriously thought Luc was only unconscious lol it was 39 damage and it was a fuckin 5 year old pfff
Now I'm all for the parent trap antics I think we as a community is all about the parent trap antics but I care to much about these NPCs' lives to not stress over the decision to keep them in the empire and not leave them in your summer home in a land in which the assembly could not travel without causing another war
Wait won't the people in the HFB hear messages slower and the people outside hear it faster?
Wait, has Luc died before? Why did Matt roll a die
Hey, remember Pusheen?
I used to like Pusheen. But now every time I see her, all I can think of is dead Luc.
Grow up. Helps a lot with fictional trauma, that usually children have.
@@Csoongor I don't wanna grow up. I'm a Toys 'R Us kid.
isnt there a rule that states if a character gets damaged that exceeds their total hp, they cant be brought back ?
Because i feel Luc should have stayed dead to teach the group the consequences of their actions
Matt has homebrew rules when it comes to bringing characters back to life. Idk if its the same for PCs as NPCs, but usually when PCs die, the revivify DC is 10, and they use Persuasion as the check. If the PC has died before, or even multiple times, the DC to come back to life is higher, and Matt typically allows 3 people to make persuasion checks, and if the checks are successful, the DC lowers.
But all this may be different when it comes to NPCs.

Maybe dont add music over scenes that have really low volume? I could barely make out what they were saying.
If there is anything you felt you missed, every full episode uploaded by critical role has full English interpretations in CC, so no worries!
